  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Skewers

  • 200g feta cheese, diced
  • 1 large cucumber, sliced
  • 10 cherry tomatoes, halved
  • Toothpicks or small skewers

Seasoning

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Feta Cheese: Cut the feta cheese into bite-sized cubes for easy skewering and balanced flavor in each bite.
  2. Slice Cucumber: Wash the cucumber thoroughly and slice it evenly to match the size of the feta cubes for a nice pairing on the skewers.
  3. Arrange Skewers: Using toothpicks or small skewers, alternately thread the feta cubes and cucumber slices to create visually appealing and tasty skewers.
  4. Add Cherry Tomatoes: Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them to the skewers or arrange alongside as a colorful and juicy complement.
  5. Drizzle with Olive Oil: Lightly drizzle the assembled skewers with olive oil to enhance the flavor and add a rich, smooth texture.
  6. Season: Sprinkle dried oregano along with salt and pepper to taste, bringing out the Mediterranean flavors and seasoning the skewers perfectly.
  7. Serve Cold: These skewers are best enjoyed chilled, making them a refreshing appetizer or snack especially in warm weather.

Notes

  • For additional flavor, you can substitute dried oregano with fresh herbs like basil or thyme.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to keep the ingredients fresh and crisp.
  • Cherry tomatoes can be omitted or replaced with olives for variation.
  • Use firm feta cheese to avoid it crumbling during skewering.
  • Adjust olive oil and seasoning amounts according to taste preferences.
